交通部再拨逾16亿美元紧急救济资金 修复各州受灾道路桥梁 北卡罗来纳州获8.73亿美元
美国交通部（USDOT）10月19日在华盛顿宣布，交通部长 Sean P. Duffy 拨付逾16亿美元紧急救济资金，帮助各州加快修复在近期自然灾害与灾难性事件中受损的道路、桥梁及其他交通基础设施。本轮资金覆盖34个州、华盛顿特区及美属维尔京群岛、波多黎各、关岛与北马里亚纳群岛，经由联邦公路管理局（FHWA）的紧急救济计划（Emergency Relief Program）发放。
其中，北卡罗来纳州获得8.73亿美元，用于2024年飓风 Helene 灾后的修复——该风暴在北卡西部造成9,000多处受损点与1,400多处道路封闭；夏威夷州获得8,100万美元，修复2026年3月 Kona Low 风暴洪灾造成的损坏；德克萨斯州获得5,200万美元，应对全州强降雨与多处桥梁冲毁，包括连接 Lago Vista 与 Marble Falls 的 FM 1431 公路桥。
交通部长 Sean P. Duffy 表示，安全畅通的道路桥梁意味着救援服务能更快抵达、医护人员能及时救治、受灾家庭能获得恢复所需的资源。FHWA 局长 Sean McMaster 表示，该局灾后与各州及地方、部落和联邦机构的协作，对恢复中断的交通连接至关重要。
FHWA 紧急救济计划为各州提供资金，修复重大自然灾害与极端天气——如洪水、山体滑坡与野火——造成的道路桥梁损坏，各期分配清单公布于 FHWA 官网。本轮拨款与今年6月宣布的18.6亿美元同类紧急救济包是两笔不同的拨款，也与交通部同日宣布的23亿美元 CRISI 铁路投资无关。
DOT Announces Over $1.6 Billion in Emergency Relief to Repair Disaster-Damaged Roads and Bridges; North Carolina to Receive $873 Million
The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) announced in Washington on October 19 that Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy is providing over $1.6 billion in emergency relief funding to help states accelerate critical repairs to roads, bridges and other transportation infrastructure damaged by recent natural disasters and catastrophic events. The funding covers 34 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, and flows through the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Emergency Relief Program.
North Carolina receives $873 million following Hurricane Helene, which caused over 9,000 damage sites and more than 1,400 road closures in the western part of the state. Hawaii receives $81 million for the series of Kona Low storms in March 2026 that caused severe flooding throughout Hawaii, and Texas receives $52 million for heavy rainfall and multiple bridge washouts, including the FM 1431 bridge connecting Lago Vista and Marble Falls.
"Safe roads and bridges means rescue services arrive faster, medical professionals can reach those in need, and families can get the resources they need to recover," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. FHWA Administrator Sean McMaster said the agency's work with states along with local, tribal, and federal agencies in the aftermath of disaster is essential to restoring broken transportation links.
FHWA's Emergency Relief Program provides funding to help states perform repairs caused by major natural disasters and extreme weather events such as flooding, landslides, and wildfires, with allocation listings published on the FHWA website. This package is separate from the $1.86 billion emergency relief announcement in June, and distinct from the $2.3 billion CRISI rail investment the department announced the same day.
